Sealants
Sealants are primarily a preventive treatment for permanent teeth, not milk or baby teeth. The first permanent teeth emerge between five and seven years of age. Another set comes about six years later. Teeth sealants last longer than four years for more than half of the children and young people who have them done. During this time the risk of cavities in the sealed teeth is about halved. The resins applied as sealants these days are generally believed to be reasonably safe.
Fluoride Treatments
Fluoride treatments commonly are given to children as their teeth are developing. If your child has a history of cavities or is at high risk of decay, he or she should use additional fluoride to promote remineralization. Often, children get fluoride treatments every six months for extra protection against cavities, even if they already drink fluoridated water.
Space Maintainer
Baby teeth (we call them primary or deciduous teeth) aren’t just for chewing. Each one also acts as a guide for the permanent tooth that replaces it. If a primary tooth is lost too early, the permanent tooth loses its guide and can drift or erupt incorrectly into the mouth. Neighboring teeth also can move or tilt into space, so the permanent tooth can’t come in.
A space maintainer is made of stainless steel and/or plastic. It can be removable, or your dentist can cement it in your child’s mouth (called a fixed space maintainer). A removable space maintainer looks like a retainer. It uses artificial teeth or acrylic blocks to fill in space or spaces that need to be maintained. This type of space maintainer often is used when space is obvious to other people. Removable space maintainers work well in older children who can reliably follow directions about caring for this appliance.
Crowns
Two types of crowns are available and can be used in children. The first is the stainless steel crown, which is used to restore a largely decayed primary molar or a pulpal treated molar. The second is the cellulose crown and is used to restore an anteriorly decayed incisor.
Orthodontic Treatments
Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that deals with straightening and correcting tooth alignment and the dental specialist who does this are called an “Orthodontist”.
Generally, the first Orthodontic consultation with a qualified Orthodontist should be done when the child’s first permanent incisors, usually lower central incisors, start erupting in the mouth i.e. at the age of about 7 years. After the complete evaluation of your child, the Orthodontist may suggest beginning with early Orthodontic treatment.
